DescriptionNVD

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, a user who holds the "power" Splunk role could store attacker-controlled Search Processing Language (SPL) in a Table Editor dataset and share the dataset. A user who holds the "admin" Splunk role triggers the SPL when that user opens the dataset in the Table Editor. The SPL runs using the permissions of the second user and could expose all relevant data and modify limited data on the search head. The vulnerability is possible because the Table Editor does not apply SPL safeguards for risky commands when it prepares the dataset initial data. The vulnerability requires the attacker to phish the affected user by tricking them into initiating a request within their browser. The user who holds the "power" Splunk role should not be able to exploit the vulnerability at will. For more information see Define initial data for a new table dataset (https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-enterprise/manage-knowledge-objects/knowledge-management-manual/9.4/create-and-edit-table-datasets/define-initial-data-for-a-new-table-dataset), SPL safeguards for risky commands (https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-enterprise/administer/manage-users-and-security/10.2/best-practices-for-splunk-platform-security/spl-safeguards-for-risky-commands), and Define roles on the Splunk platform with capabilities (https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-enterprise/administer/manage-users-and-security/10.4/manage-splunk-platform-users-and-roles/define-roles-on-the-splunk-platform-with-capabilities) in the Splunk documentation.

AnalysisAI

Splunk Enterprise's Table Editor dataset feature permits a 'power' role user to inject attacker-controlled Search Processing Language (SPL) into a shared dataset, which silently executes with admin-level permissions when an administrator opens the dataset. Affected deployments span four version branches: 9.4 prior to 9.4.14, 10.0 prior to 10.0.9, 10.2 prior to 10.2.6, and 10.4 prior to 10.4.2. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Recon
Attacker acquires or holds Splunk power role
Delivery
Embeds malicious SPL in Table Editor dataset
Exploit

Install
Phishes admin to open dataset in Table Editor
C2
Table Editor loads SPL without risky-command safeguards
Execute
SPL executes under admin permissions
Impact
Search head data exfiltrated or modified

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to hold the Splunk 'power' role on the target Splunk Enterprise instance - this role is the specific prerequisite granting the ability to create Table Editor datasets and share them with other users. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The vendor CVSS score of 5.4 (Medium) with vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N correctly reflects compounding constraints that substantially reduce real-world exploitability. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A malicious insider holding the Splunk 'power' role crafts a Table Editor dataset embedding SPL commands that search for and export sensitive index data - such as credentials stored in logs, security event records, or user activity data - accessible to admin-level accounts. The attacker shares the dataset with a Splunk administrator and delivers a phishing message via email or internal chat claiming the dataset contains an urgent report requiring review. …
Remediation Upgrade Splunk Enterprise to a patched release: 9.4.14 for the 9.4 branch, 10.0.9 for the 10.0 branch, 10.2.6 for the 10.2 branch, or 10.4.2 for the 10.4 branch. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
